A Question of Eligibility

A Question
of Eligibility
In May 2010 I was contacted by a
gentleman who requested that I put
down, in concise terms, the facts
surrounding the question of the
eligibility of Barack Hussein Obama
to the presidency of the United States
under Article II, Section 1, Clause 5,
of the United States Constitution.
The first report was published on
June 23, 2010. This edition,
published April 14, 2011, constitutes
the updated report.

A Question of Eligibility Barack Hussein Obama
This document addresses the question of the eligibility of Barack Hussein Obama to the
office of president. This document will address the meaning of natural born, the birth
certificate, and related issues. (Note: for the purposes of this document, "Barack
Hussein Obama" or "Obama" will refer to the individual supposedly born August 4,
1961, and Barack Obama will refer to his father.)
The Constitutional Requirement
What is the constitutional requirement to be elected president?
Article II, Section 1, Clause 5, United States Constitution, states,
No person except a natural born citizen, or a citizen of the United States, at the time
of the adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the office of president;
neither shall any person be eligible to that office who shall not have attained to the
age of thirty-five years, and been fourteen years a resident of the United States.
This begs the question — what is meant by natural born?
Thomas Jefferson, 1823,
On every question of construction, carry ourselves back to the time when the
Constitution was adopted, recollect the spirit manifested in the debates, and instead
of trying what meaning may be squeezed out of the text, or invented against it
conform to the probable one in which it was passed.
When writing the Constitution, the Founding Fathers used the definition of natural
born provided by Vattel's Law of Nations, Part I, Chapter 19, Section 212,
The citizens are the members of the civil society; bound to this society by certain
duties, and subject to its authority, they equally participate in its advantages. The
natives, or natural-born citizens, are those born in the country, of parents who are
citizens. As the society cannot exist and perpetuate itself otherwise than by the
children of the citizens, those children naturally follow the condition of their
fathers, and succeed to all their rights. The society is supposed to desire this, in
consequence of what it owes to its own preservation; and it is presumed, as matter
of course, that each citizen, on entering into society, reserves to his children the
right of becoming members of it. The country of the fathers is therefore that of the
children; and these become true citizens merely by their tacit consent. We shall
soon see whether, on their coming to the years of discretion, they may renounce

their right, and what they owe to the society in which they were born. I say, that,
in order to be of the country, it is necessary that a person be born of a father who is
a citizen; for, if he is born there of a foreigner, it will be only the place of his birth,
and not his country.
Does Barack Hussein Obama meet the requirements of natural born as defined by
Vattel?
Further definition of natural born is found in an article published on The Federalist

Blog and is reproduced here:
Natural-Born Citizen Defined
One universal point most all early publicists agreed on was natural-born citizen
must mean one who is a citizen by no act of law. If a person owes their citizenship
to some act of law (naturalization for example), they cannot be considered a
natural-born citizen. This leads us to defining natural-born citizen under the laws
of nature - laws the founders recognized and embraced.
Under the laws of nature, every child born requires no act of law to establish the
fact the child inherits through nature his/her father’s citizenship as well as his
name (or even his property) through birth. This law of nature is also recognized by
law of nations. Sen. Howard said the citizenship clause under the Fourteenth
Amendment was by virtue of “natural law and national law.”
The advantages of Natural Law is competing allegiances between nations are not
claimed, or at least with those nations whose custom is to not make citizens of other
countries citizens without their consent. Any alternations or conflicts due to a
child’s natural citizenship are strictly a creature of local municipal law. In the year
1866, the United States for the first time adopted a local municipal law under Sec.
1992 of U.S. Revised Statutes that read: “All persons born in the United States and
not subject to any foreign power, excluding Indians not taxed, are declared to be
citizens of the United States.”
Rep. John A. Bingham commenting on Section 1992 said it means “every human
being born within the jurisdiction of the United States of parents not owing
allegiance to any foreign sovereignty is, in the language of your Constitution itself,
a natural born citizen.” (Cong. Globe, 39th, 1st Sess., 1291 (1866))
Bingham had asserted the same thing in 1862 as well:

Does the gentleman mean that any person, born within the limits of the
Republic, and who has offended against no law, can rightfully be exiled from
any State or from any rood of the Republic? Does the gentleman undertake to
say that here, in the face of the provision in the Constitution, that persons born
within the limits of the Republic, of parents who are not the subjects of any
other sovereignty, are native-born citizens, whether they be black or white?
There is not a textbook referred to in any court which does not recognise the
principle that I assert. (Cong. Globe, 37th, 2nd Sess., 407 (1862))
Bingham subscribed to the same view as most everyone in Congress at the time
that in order to be born a citizen of the United States one must be born within the
allegiance of the Nation. Bingham had explained years earlier that to be born
within the allegiance of the United States the parents, or more precisely, the father,
must not owe allegiance to some other foreign sovereignty (remember the U.S.
abandoned England’s “natural allegiance” doctrine). This of course, explains why
emphasis of not owing allegiance to anyone else was the affect of being subject to
the jurisdiction of the United States.
It should be noted this allegiance due under England’s common law and American
law are of two different species. Under the common law one owed a personal
allegiance to the King as an individual upon birth. Under the American system
there was no individual ruler to owe a personal allegiance to.
The constitutional requirement for the President of the United States to be a

natural-born citizen had one purpose according to St. George Tucker:
That provision in the constitution which requires that the president shall be a
native-born citizen (unless he were a citizen of the United States when the
constitution was adopted,) is a happy means of security against foreign
influence, which, wherever it is capable of being exerted, is to be dreaded more
than the plague. The admission of foreigners into our councils, consequently,
cannot be too much guarded against; their total exclusion from a station to
which foreign nations have been accustomed to, attach ideas of sovereign
power, sacredness of character, and hereditary right, is a measure of the most
consummate policy and wisdom. …The title of king, prince, emperor, or czar,
without the smallest addition to his powers, would have rendered him a
member of the fraternity of crowned heads: their common cause has more than
once threatened the desolation of Europe. To have added a member to this
sacred family in America, would have invited and perpetuated among us all the
evils of Pandora’s Box.

Charles Pinckney in 1800 said the presidential eligibility clause was designed “to
insure … attachment to the country.” President Washington warned a “passionate
attachment of one nation for another, produces a variety of evils,” and goes on to
say:
Sympathy for the favorite nation, facilitating the illusion of an imaginary

common interest, in cases where no real common interest exists, and infusing
into one the enmities of the other, betrays the former into a participation in the
quarrels and wars of the latter, without adequate inducement or justification. It
leads also to concessions to the favorite nation, of privileges denied to others,
which is apt doubly to injure the nation making the concessions; by
unnecessarily parting with what ought to have been retained; and by exciting
jealousy, ill- will, and a disposition to retaliate, in the parties from whom equal
privileges are withheld.
And it gives to ambitious, corrupted, or deluded citizens, (who devote

themselves to the favorite nation,) facility to betray or sacrifice the interests of
their own country, without odium, sometimes even with popularity; gilding,
with the appearance of a virtuous sense of obligation, a commendable deference
for public opinion, or a laudable zeal for public good, the base or foolish
compliances of ambition, corruption, or infatuation.
What better way to insure attachment to the country then to require the President
to have inherited his American citizenship through his American father and not
through a foreign father. Any child can be born anywhere in the country and
removed by their father to be raised in his native country. The risks would be for
the child to return in later life to reside in this country bringing with him foreign
influences and intrigues, and thus, making such a citizen indistinguishable from a
naturalized citizen.
In an article, posted on FactCheck.org on August 29, 2008 …
When Barack Obama Jr. was born on Aug. 4,1961, in Honolulu, Kenya was a
British colony, still part of the United Kingdom's dwindling empire. As a Kenyan
native, Barack Obama Sr. was a British subject whose citizenship status was
governed by The British Nationality Act of 1948. That same act governed the status
of Obama Sr.'s children:
British Nationality Act of 1948 (Part II, Section 5): Subject to the
provisions of this section, a person born after the commencement of this Act
shall be a citizen of the United Kingdom and Colonies by descent if his father is a

citizen of the United Kingdom and Colonies at the time of the birth.
In other words, at the time of his birth, Barack Obama Jr. was both a U.S. citizen
(by virtue of being born in Hawaii) and a citizen of the United Kingdom and
Colonies (or the UKC) by virtue of being born to a father who was a citizen of the
UKC.
Except for a correction, noted at the bottom of the article, FactCheck.org has never
deviated from this stand.
While the FactCheck.org article claims that Obama lost his British citizenship when
Kenya became independent of Britain, and lost his Kenyan citizenship at age 23, neither
negates the fact that his father was first a British subject as was Obama, later a Kenyan
citizen as was Obama.
Despite the claims printed at FactCheck.org, the fact that Barack Obama was not an
American precludes Barack Hussein Obama from achieving the status of "natural born"
as required by the United States Constitution.
Whether Barack Hussein Obama is even a dual citizen, however, is questionable. But,
even if a dual citizen, he is not eligible to the office of president as he was not born to
parents who were both American citizens.
The Certification of Live Birth (COLB)
In June 2008 there appeared on several websites, pictures of a document claimed to be

Barack Hussein Obama's "birth certificate".
On August 21, 2008, FactCheck.org issued the following statement, in part:
FactCheck.org staffers have now seen, touched, examined and photographed the
original birth certificate. We conclude that it meets all of the requirements from the
State Department for proving U.S. citizenship. Claims that the document lacks a
raised seal or a signature are false. We have posted high-resolution photographs of
the document as "supporting documents" to this article. Our conclusion: Obama
was born in the U.S.A. just as he has always said.
What was FactCheck.org referring to when they claimed to have "seen, touched,
examined and photographed the original birth certificate"? To the left of the article at
the link above are a series of nine pictures, taken of the document supposedly seen,
touched, examined and photographed by FactCheck.org (Appendix A is a compilation of

those pictures).
Should we take FactCheck.org's word that this document is authentic? Are the people at
Factcheck.org who "examined" this document forensic specialists such that they could
tell if the document, itself, was real or forged? Their qualifications for asserting the
document "authentic" are not included.
And who is FactCheck.org?
FactCheck.org is run by the Annenberg Public

Policy Center, funded by the Annenberg
Foundation. Barack Obama served on the board
of the Annenberg Foundation. The Annenberg
Foundation, much like the Carnegie Foundation
and Ford Foundation, is known for promoting
left-of-center policies and politics.
Could FactCheck.org be considered "unbiased"? Hardly. Is it a coincidence that the

Obama campaign chose FactCheck.org to produce the pictures of the supposed Obama
"birth certificate?" Doubtful. Is it a mere oversight or coincidence that no one else has
seen that supposed "birth certificate"? Highly unlikely.
But the problem goes far beyond the qualifications of personnel at FactCheck.org to
determine the authenticity of the document they saw, touched, examined and
photographed, or FactCheck.org's obvious connection to Barack Hussein Obama and the
left-of-center Annenberg Foundation.
In order for these pictures to be considered authentic copies of the original document, a
notarized document to that effect would have to accompany the pictures, phrased in
such manner that it could not be said that the document represented any other pictures
but those displayed. If that document exists, it is not on the FactCheck.org website. Any
attorney, looking at those pictures, would state categorically that they are tantamount to
hearsay evidence; they are proof of nothing as they are not the actual document nor a
legal facsimile thereof.
Beyond the fact that the pictures are proof of nothing, is the fact that the actual
document, claimed to be Obama's "birth certificate", has not been seen nor examined by
anyone trained to determine its authenticity.
Of note is the fact that several websites have produced a document they claim to be

Obama's "birth certificate." Interestingly, examination of each of the digital files that
comprise the picture produced on the website, makes it apparent that the picture has
been altered or forged. The actual pictures, their sources, and a picture of the digital file
representing them, can be seen in Appendix B.
Each one of these documents, presented at the various websites — DailyKos.com,

FightTheSmears.com, LA Times (here, here, and here), and PolitiFact.com — is said to
be Obama's "birth certificate."
But closer examination makes it clear that this document is a Certification of Live Birth
(COLB). In the lower right corner of the document, it is clearly stated that this
document is printed on a form revised in November 2001 and is printed using a laser.
As authentic COLB's, issued by the Department of Health (DOH), Hawaii, are mailed,
and tri-folded to be mailed, fold lines should be apparent in each of these documents.
Close examination of each of these pictures produces no fold lines.
And each authentic COLB carries a raised seal. It is of note that none of these pictures
show any indication of a seal.
Beyond the altered/forged digital files that represent the pictures, the absence of fold
lines and a raised seal makes it obvious these pictures were not derived from the
document shown in Appendix A, even though those pictures cannot be said to be of an
authentic COLB either.
Another copy of the COLB also appears on the FactCheck.org website. In this copy, the
obvious fold lines are also gone, no seal is apparent, and the digital file shows the
document has been altered or forged. See Appendix C.
Now compare the COLB shown in Appendix C with the pictures in Appendix A. Note
the black dot appearing in the upper portion of the COLB shown in Appendix C that
does not appear in the upper portion of the COLB shown in Appendix A. These pictures
were obviously not derived from the same document yet both came from FactCheck.org;
the same FactCheck.org who claims to have seen, touched, examined and photographed
the "birth certificate" that isn't a birth certificate but a COLB.
COLB vs. Birth Certificate
Since an actual birth certificate is issued at or near the time of birth, and Obama was
supposedly born in 1961, these supposed copies of his COLB, even if they were

authentic, are not his actual birth certificate. That document would, more than likely,
have been generated using a typewriter as other birth certificates of the time period
were.
And like other birth certificates, Obama's birth certificate would show the hospital
where his birth occurred, the name of the mother and the father, and bear the signature
of the doctor or midwife who attended at the birth.
It is easy to see that this document is not Obama's birth certificate as it bears none of the
information that an actual birth certificate includes.
On page 26 of Dreams from My Father (Three Rivers Press; NY; 2004), Obama states,
I discovered this article, folded away among my birth certificate and old
vaccination forms, when I was in high school.
If Obama has his actual birth certificate, one has to wonder why he went to all the
trouble to obtain a COLB.
Or did he?
A request for disclosure, filed with the DOH, Hawaii, requesting a copy of any
document, signed by Obama, by any and all aliases by which he might be known, in
which he requested a copy of his birth certificate and/or a COLB, was not responded to.
See Appendix D.
Under Hawaiian law, while the birth certificate is exempt from disclosure, except under
certain circumstances, the documents requesting the COLB are not. And under
Hawaiian law, the COLB must be requested in writing and must be mailed to the
individual. Hawaii's refusal to supply those documents leaves unanswered the question
of whether Obama actually requested a COLB. If he did, then Hawaii should have
provided a copy of those requesting documents on request. If he did not request the
COLB, then the COLB FactCheck.org and other websites have published, is obviously a
forgery.
And while DOH, Hawaii, has stated that the COLB "looks authentic", DOH, Hawaii, has
refused to authenticate that the COLB Obama has waved about as his "birth certificate"
was issued by DOH, Hawaii.

Why is the Actual Birth Certificate Being Sought?
In 1961, the year Obama claims to have been born, there were actually four different
types of birth certificates that could be obtained (source):
BC1. If the birth was attended by a physician or mid wife, the attending medical
professional was required to certify to the Department of Health the facts of the
birth date, location, parents’ identities and other information. (See Section 57-8 & 9
of the Territorial Public Health Statistics Act in the 1955 Revised Laws of Hawaii
which was in effect in 1961).
Actual long form Certificate of Live Birth similar to one Obama refuses to release
BC2. In 1961, if a person was born in Hawaii but not attended by a physician or
midwife, then all that was required was that one of the parents send in a birth
certificate to be filed. The birth certificate could be filed by mail. There appears to
have been no requirement for the parent to actually physically appear before “the
local registrar of the district.” It would have been very easy for a relative to forge
an absent parent’s signature to a form and mail it in. In addition, if a claim was
made that “neither parent of the newborn child whose birth is unattended as above
provided is able to prepare a birth certificate, the local registrar shall secure the
necessary information from any person having knowledge of the birth and prepare
and file the certificate.” (Section 57-8&9) I asked the Dept of Health what they
currently ask for (in 2008) to back up a parent’s claim that a child was born in
Hawaii. I was told that all they required was a proof of residence in Hawaii (e.g. a

driver’s license [We know from interviews with her friends on Mercer Island in
Washington State that Ann Dunham had acquired a driver’s license by the summer
of 1961 at the age of 17] or telephone bill) and pre-natal (statement or report that a
woman was pregnant) and post-natal (statement or report that a new-born baby
has been examined) certification by a physician. On further enquiry, the employee
that I spoke to informed me that the pre-natal and post-natal certifications had
probably not been in force in the ‘60s. Even if they had been, there is and was no
requirement for a physician or midwife to witness, state or report that the baby
was born in Hawaii.
BC3. In 1961, if a person was born in Hawaii but not attended by a physician or
midwife, then, up to the first birthday of the child, a “Delayed Certificate” could be
filed, which required that “a summary statement of the evidence submitted in
support of the acceptance for delayed filing or the alteration [of a file] shall be
endorsed on the certificates”, which “evidence shall be kept in a special permanent
file.” The statute provided that “the probative value of a ‘delayed’ or ‘altered’
certificate shall be determined by the judicial or administrative body or official
before whom the certificate is offered as evidence.” (See Section 57- 9, 18, 19 & 20 of
the Territorial Public Health Statistics Act in the 1955 Revised Laws of Hawaii
which was in effect in 1961).”
[In other words, this form of vault birth certificate, the Delayed Certificate,
required no more than a statement before a government bureaucrat by one of the
parents or (the law does not seem to me clear on this) one of Barack Obama’s
grandparents. If the latter is true, Ann Dunham did not have to be present for this
statement or even in the country.]
BC4. If a child is born in Hawaii, for whom no physician or mid wife filed a
certificate of live birth, and for whom no Delayed Certificate was filed before the
first birthday, then a Certificate of Hawaiian Birth could be issued upon testimony
of an adult (including the subject person [i.e. the birth child as an adult])
if the Office of the Lieutenant Governor was satisfied that a person was born in
Hawaii, provided that the person had attained the age of one year. (See Section 57-
40 of the Territorial Public Health Statistics Act in the 1955 Revised Laws of Hawaii
which was in effect in 1961.) In 1955 the “secretary of the Territory” was in charge
of this procedure. In 1960 it was transferred to the Office of the Lieutenant
Governor (“the lieutenant governor, or his secretary, or such other person as
he may designate or appoint from his office” §338-41 [in 1961]).
It is easy to see, from this, that until the actual birth document, issued at the time of

Obama's birth, is presented and examined, where he was actually born and what type of
birth certificate he has, remains unknown.
In 1982, the vital records law was amended to create a fifth kind of "original birth
certificate" (source):
In 1982, the vital records law was amended to create a fifth kind of “original birth
certificate”. Under Act 182 H.B. NO. 3016-82, “Upon application of an adult or the
legal parents of a minor child, the director of health shall issue a birth certificate
for such adult or minor, provided that the proof has been submitted to the director
of health that the legal parents of such individual while living without the Territory
or State of Hawaii had declared the Territory or State of Hawaii as their legal
residence for at least one year immediately preceding the birth or adoption of such
child.” In this way “state policies and procedures” accommodate even “children
born out of State” (this is the actual language of Act 182) with an “original birth
certificate on record.”
It is very possible that the "vital records" Hawaii holds on Obama were established
under Act 182; that the birth certificate he references in his book, Dreams from My
Father, was not issued by Hawaii but a Hawaiian birth certificate was obtained for him
post-1982. It is of note, in the Soetoro divorce papers, that although Obama's half-
sister, Maya, was born in Indonesia, is an Indonesian citizen, the divorce papers claim
she is an American citizen. It is highly likely that she carries the same type foreign-born
Hawaiian birth certificate.
The different types of birth certificates, issued by Hawaii, also expose Dr Fukino's
carefully lawyered press release of October 31, 2008:
Therefore, I as Director of Health for the State of Hawai‘i, along with the Registrar
of Vital Statistics who has statutory authority to oversee and maintain these type of
vital records, have personally seen and verified that the Hawai‘i State Department
of Health has Sen. Obama’s original birth certificate on record in accordance with
state policies and procedures.
and July 27, 2009:
I, Dr. Chiyome Fukino, Director of the Hawai‛i State Department of Health, have
seen the original vital records maintained on file by the Hawai‘i State Department
of Health verifying Barack Hussein Obama was born in Hawai‘i and is a natural-
born American citizen. I have nothing further to add to this statement or my
original statement issued in October 2008 over eight months ago.

… as meaning absolutely nothing! Until the actual birth document is produced, where
Obama was actually born is unknown.
DOH, Hawaii, claims that birth certificate numbers are issued in order of birth.
Following is the birth certificate of one of the Nordyke twins, born August 5, 1961:
Note the certificate number: 151 61 10637. This is the older of the twins, the second
twin's certificate number being 151 61 10638. Their births were accepted and filed on
August 11, 1961. (Note: This document is an actual birth certificate, not a COLB.)
According to the COLB waved about by Barack Hussein Obama, he was born on August
4, 1961, his birth filed on August 8, 1961.
Born one day before the Nordyke twins, the certificate number in the upper right corner
of the pictures in Appendix A, discloses the certificate number as 151 1961 – 010641 1.
1
The difference in the two numbers 151 61 10641 and 151 1961-010641 can be explained in the difference
between the birth certificate and the Certification of Live Birth unless otherwise proven.

How is it, if certificate numbers are given in the order of birth, that Barack Hussein
Obama, supposedly born at the same hospital as the Nordyke twins, one day prior to the
Nordyke twins, birth filed three days before the Nordyke twins, has a birth certificate
number three numbers subsequent to the second Nordyke twin?
Note that the Obama COLB does not have an "accepted" date. When was his birth
"accepted"? Is his COLB number after those of the Nordyke twins because his birth was
not accepted on the date it was filed? The only reason the two dates would be different
would be if additional proof was required. If a doctor or midwife attended the birth, if
the birth occurred at Kapi'olani Maternity and Gynecological Hospital, no further proof
would be required.
One would think, if Obama was actually born at the Kapi'olani Maternity and
Gynecological Hospital, considering he is now sitting in the Oval Office, occupying the
White House, that Kapi'olani would acknowledge his birth there. They haven't.
In fact, World Net Daily has documented several websites that have written that Obama
claims to have been born at Queens Medical Center, Hawaii. Once the discrepancy
became known, published by World Net Daily on July 9, 2009, following the publishing
of a letter signed by Obama praising the Kapi'olani Maternity and Gynecological
Hospital and claiming to have been born there, websites began changing their previous
reports on the matter. One such report, however, goes back to 2004 and can be seen
here. Paper documents, turned into .pdf files, are obviously not so easily changed.
No hospital in Hawaii has laid claim to Obama having been born there, and no doctor or
midwife has stepped forward to lay claim to having attended at his birth.
Shortly after Neil Abercrombie was sworn in as governor of Hawaii, in December 2010,
CNN Senior White House Correspondent Ed Henry reported,
Abercrombie, a newly-elected Democrat, told CNN that he will do whatever it takes

to prove once and for all that Obama was born in Hawaii.
Subsequently, on January 18, 2011, the Star Advertiser out of Honolulu, Hawaii,
following a candid interview with Governor Abercrombie (formerly a U.S.
Representative and supposedly a friend of Obama's parents), reported the following:
Q: You stirred up quite a controversy with your comments regarding birthers and
your plans to release more information regarding President Barack Obama's birth
certificate. How is that coming?

A: I got a letter from someone the other day who was genuinely concerned about it;
it is not all just political agenda. They were talking on Olelo last night about this; it
has a political implication for 2012 that we simply cannot have.
(Abercrombie said there is a recording of the birth in the State Archives and he wants
to use that.)
It was actually written I am told, this is what our investigation is showing, it

actually exists in the archives, written down ...
...What I can do, and all I have ever said, is that I am going to see to it as governor
that I can verify to anyone who is honest about it that this is the case.
Further clarification of Abercrombie's remarks, made above, was sought by World Net
Daily, to no avail.
But a subsequent article, also published in the Star Advertiser on January 21, 2011,
insinuates that the "recording of the birth" Abercrombie was referring to is the Hawaii
birth index held by the DOH, Hawaii.
In January 2010, John R Charlton sent to DOH, Hawaii, a request for disclosure,
requesting copies of those pages of the Hawaii birth index listing the surnames Payne,
Dunham, Soetoro and Obama. What he received in response to his request for
disclosure, from DOH, Hawaii, was pages that should contain those surnames if they
existed on the Hawaii birth index. That none of the surnames requested existed on the
Hawaii birth index in January 2010 indicates DOH, Hawaii, held no birth records for
the surnames specified.
But the above noted Star Advertiser article states,
Health Department spokeswoman Janice Okubo again confirmed today that

Obama's name is found in its alphabetical list of names of people born in Hawaii,
maintained in bound copies available for public view.
How is it that Obama's name did not appear on the Hawaii birth index in January 2010
but did appear on the Hawaii birth index in January 2011? Since the birth index is an
electronic database, how hard would it be to add or delete information?
Another quote, attributed to Janice Okubo, in the same article, gives further clarity to
the Hawaii birth index but raises more questions,

The index is just to say who has their records within the department. That's an
indication … I can't talk about anyone's records.
In other words, just because a name appears on the Hawaii birth index does not
guarantee that the records held by DOH, Hawaii, include a Hawaiian issued birth
certificate or any document whatsoever that would prove someone was born in Hawaii.
All of this, of course, makes it even more of an imperative that Obama's actual birth
document be produced and examined.
Dual Citizenship
In an article, published at FactCheck.org, the claim is made that Barack Hussein Obama
was a dual citizen at birth. Beyond the fact that dual citizenship does not equate to
natural born, did Barack Hussein Obama actually hold dual citizenship at birth?
The answer to that question cannot be provided until the actual birth document is
produced and examined, until the place of birth is actually ascertained.
Here is what we do know. Barack Obama was a British subject in 1961 when Obama was
supposedly born. Stanley Ann Dunham Obama was an American citizen in 1961 when
Obama was supposedly born.
What we do not know, until the actual birth certificate is produced, is whether Barack
Obama is the father and Stanley Ann Dunham the mother. We also do not know
whether Barack Hussein Obama was born on American soil or on foreign soil
If Barack Hussein Obama was born in Hawaii, if Barack Obama is the father, the British
Nationality Act of 1948, in effect in 1961, applies. Part II, Section 5, states,
(1) Subject to the provisions of this section, a person born after the
commencement of this Act shall be a citizen of the United Kingdom and Colonies
by descent if his father is a citizen of the United Kingdom and Colonies at the time
of the birth:
Provided that if the father of such a person is a citizen of the United Kingdom
and Colonies by descent only, that person shall not be a citizen of the United
Kingdom and Colonies by virtue of this section unless—
(a) that person is born or his father was born in a protectorate, protected state,
mandated territory or trust territory or any place in a foreign country
where by treaty, capitulation, grant, usage, sufferance, or other lawful

means, His Majesty then has or had jurisdiction over British subjects; or
(b) that person's birth having occurred in a place in a foreign country other
than a place such as is mentioned in the last foregoing paragraph, the birth
is registered at a United Kingdom consulate within one year of its
occurrence, or, with the permission of the Secretary of State, later; or
(c) that person's father is, at the time of the birth, in Crown service under His
Majesty's government in the United Kingdom; or
(d) that person is born in any country mentioned in subsection (3) of section
one of this Act in which a citizenship law has then taken effect and does not
become a citizen thereof on birth.
(2) If the Secretary of State so directs, a birth shall be deemed for the purposes of
this section to have been registered with his permission notwithstanding that his
permission was not obtained before the registration.
This conforms with Vattel's Law of Nations, Part I, Chapter 19, Section 212. It also
conforms with the definition of natural born discussed earlier.
If Obama was born outside the United States, under the laws in effect in 1961, his
mother would have had to attain the age of 19 prior to his birth in order for him to claim
even dual citizenship. Stanley Ann Dunham Obama turned 18 on November 27, 1960.
She was not yet 19 if Obama was born on August 4, 1961. If born outside the United
States, Barack Hussein Obama was born a British subject period. If he was born in
Hawaii, it is possible that he could be a dual citizen but not a natural born citizen.
The Adoption of Barack Hussein Obama
While the marriage of Barack Obama and Stanley Ann Dunham has not be found, their
divorce papers have been.
Subsequently, Stanley Ann Obama married Lolo Seotoro. The family moved to Jakarta,
Indonesia.
On January 1, 1968, Barack Hussein Obama was registered at the Fransiskus Assisi
Primary School in Jakarta, Indonesia as Barry Soetoro, Indonesian citizen of Muslim
faith. The registration page from the school is shown at the top of the next page.

The authenticity of this document can be

found here.
The translation of this document can be

found here. 2
On this form Lolo Soetoro is listed as the

parent; Stanley Ann Dunham Obama
Soetoro's name does not appear at all.
It has been surmised that this was done

according to Indonesian and Muslim
custom even though the Fransiskus Assisi
Primary School was not a Muslim school;
it was a Catholic school.
However, when Stanley Ann Dunham

Obama Soetoro filed for divorce from
Lolo Soetoro, on June 15, 1980, a little
under two months short of Obama's
nineteenth birthday, Stanley Ann Dunham Obama Soetoro made the following
statement in the divorce papers:
3. The parties have 1 child(ren) below age 18 and 1 child(ren) above 18 but still
dependent on the parties for education.
Stanley Ann Dunham Obama Soetoro had two children: Barack, supposedly the child of
Barack Obama and Maya, the child of Lolo Soetoro. This accounts for both children
noted above.
In a separate document, bearing the same file number as the divorce documents –
117619 – is found a document, numbered page 3, which states,
husband has not contributed to support of wife and children since 1974/ husband
living with another woman, wishes to remarry
Even in 1961, step-children were not listed as dependents of a step-father in the event of
a divorce. Adopted children, however, would be an entirely different matter.
2
Note that the original web pages and websites, for both the picture authentication and translation, no longer
exist; and can only be found, at this time, via http://web.archive.org.

And why would Barack Hussein Obama be listed as a dependent of Soetoro for the
purposes of education unless there was a benefit, such as aid as a foreign student, for
doing so?
No documents have been presented or surfaced showing that Barry Soetoro had his
adoptive name changed back to Barack Hussein Obama, even though that is the name
he now uses.
When applying for an

Illinois law license,
Obama, under penalty,
claimed no other
aliases, but is Barack
Hussein Obama his real
name or his alias?
Likewise, if ever eligible

to do so, there have
been no documents
presented, nor have any
documents surfaced, showing that Barry Soetoro/Barack Hussein Obama reclaimed his
American citizenship. If he received aid as a foreign student, quite obviously he did so
as a citizen of a foreign country.
Along with his actual birth certificate, Obama has sealed his education records from
Occidental, Columbia and Harvard.
If Barack Hussein Obama was adopted by Lolo Soetoro, as indicated by the Soetoro
divorce papers, was the original birth certificate of Barack Hussein Obama sealed and a
new birth certificate issued to reflect that adoption? If not, the original birth document
would be accurate on its face but would not be an accurate representation of the facts. If
the original birth document was changed, by what legal means was Barry Soetoro's
adopted name changed back to Barack Hussein Obama?
The only way to answer the myriad of questions that emanate from the Fransiskus Assisi
Primary School registration document, coupled with the Soetoro divorce papers, is to
produce the actual birth document and any amended copies thereof.

Evidence of Foreign Birth
Early on in the question of whether Obama was eligible to the office of president, Philip
Berg filed a lawsuit accompanied by affidavits and exhibits in which Sarah Obama, the
step-grandmother of Barack Hussein Obama, in which she stated she was present at his
birth in Mombasa, Kenya. Those documents, case 08-cv-1933, can be found here. They
include the affidavit and exhibit of Bishop Ron McRae and affidavit of Reverend Kewli
Shuhubia.
On November 5, 2008, the Parliament of Kenya was in great jubilation over the election
of Barack Hussein Obama; in such jubilation, in fact, that many members were absent,
celebrating in Kogelo, the home of the Obama family.
Several references are made in the official Parliamentary record of November 5, 2008,
to Obama being "of Kenya", including these:
I am also hoping that there will be no homecoming for Obama. If there is one, the
Leader of Government Business should alert us in good time so that we can set up a
committee to organize for his homecoming. (page 3266)
Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the President-elect, Mr. Obama, is a son of the soil of this
country. Every other country in this continent is celebrating the Obama win. It is
only proper and fitting that the country which he originates from should show the
same excitement, pomp and colour. I, therefore, seek leave of the House that we
adjourn to discuss the issue. (page 3275)
It does not matter what kind of structures we have in place for an Obama to come
out of the Kenyan environment. (page 3285)
Kenya is going to receive a lot of attention, but let it not be negative because we are
the home of the President-elect of the USA. (page 3287)
That was a visionary leader and if he did not do this, we would not be celebrating
the success of our brother, Obama from Kogelo. (page 3289)
Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, if there is one lesson we can learn from
Obama being elected as the first African to the presidency of the United States of
America is that courtesy of having very strong institutions that would allow that.
(page 3291)
Mr Orengo, Minister of Lands, addressing the parliament, was recorded in the Kenya

Parliamentary Record, dated March 25, 2010, making the following statement:
If America was living in a situation where they feared ethnicity and did not see
itself as a multiparty state or nation, how could a young man born here in Kenya,
who is not even a native American, become the President of America? (page 31)
This plenary session has disappeared off the Kenya Parliament Hansard webpage; the
March 25, 2010 plenary session record has been replaced by the February 25, 2010
plenary session record; and where the Hansard indicates the February 25, 2010 plenary
session record should be, the record is actually a duplicate of the February 24, 2010
plenary session record. This author, however, downloaded the actual March 25, 2010
plenary session record that was found here on April 12, 2010. It is of note that all other
plenary session records are properly linked on the Hansard webpage, with the dates
noted matching the actual .pdf file. A mere coincidence? Doubtful.
Several African newspapers, with on-line websites, have claimed, both before and since
November 4, 2008, that Obama was "Kenya -born". Those web pages can be seen here.
On November 21, 2008, a radio show out of Detroit Michigan, the WRIF Mike in the
Morning Show, contacted the Kenyan Ambassador to the United States, Peter Ogego, at
his offices in Washington, DC. During the course of that conversation, Ogego was asked
directly about Barack Obama's birth place in Kenya. Ogego acknowledged that Obama
was born there and that his place of birth was already "well known" and "an attraction."
That conversation was recorded and can be listened to here.
In December 2007, Michelle Obama, speaking at a campaign fundraiser in Tampa,

Florida, made the following remark:
"What it reminded me of was our trip to Africa, two years ago, and the level of
excitement that we felt in that country - the hope that people saw just in the sheer
presence of somebody like Barack Obama - a Kenyan, a black man, a man of
great statesmanship who they believe could change the fate of the world."
(emphasis added)
The full tape of her presentation can be seen and heard here.
On August 26, 2008, Michelle Obama, addressing the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and
Transgender (LGBT) Delegate Luncheon during the Democratic National Convention in
Denver, Colorado made this comment:

He has also spoken out against the stigma surrounding HIV testing, which is still
plaguing so many of our communities, which you all know … a lot of that is due to
homophobia. Barack has led by example. When we took our trip to Africa
and visited his home country in Kenya, we took a public HIV test … for the
very point of showing folks in Kenya that there is nothing to be embarrassed about
in getting tested. (emphasis added)
The speech, approximately sixteen minutes in length, can be listened to, in its entirety,
here.
In both instances, Michelle Obama was not speaking "off the cuff", she was speaking
from a prepared speech. The remarks were not an accident, a "gaff", or unintended.
The Birth Announcements
Some have pointed to the birth

announcements, placed in the Honolulu
Advertiser and Honolulu Star Bulletin, as
proof that Obama was born in Hawaii.
Birth announcements, however, can be submitted by anyone, even in 1961. It is of note

that Barack Obama and Stanley Ann Dunham Obama never lived at 6085 Kalanianaole
Highway. Barack Obama maintained a residence at 625 11th Ave. in Kaimuki, close to
the University of Hawaii where he attended. Stanley and Madelyn Dunham, however,
did live at the Kalanianaole address, raising the question of who actually did place the
birth announcements.
According to the Polk Directory, on August 19, 1961, Stanley Ann Dunham Obama and
son were living at 516 13th Ave. E. apt. 2, Seattle, Washington, and Stanley Ann Dunham
Obama was enrolled for classes at the University of Washington. She would not return
to Hawaii until after Barack Obama had left the island to further his education at
Harvard in Cambridge, Massachusetts. The Obama divorce was finalized on March 20,
1964 in Hawaii.
Multiple Social Security Numbers
It has long been known that illegal aliens appropriate social security numbers for their
own illegal use.
Orly Taitz, California attorney and dentist, hired a private investigator to compile a list

of social security numbers of the surname Obama, also for Stanley Ann Dunham Obama
Soetoro. Of the list compiled, the following are social security numbers known to have
been used by Obama and Dunham:
Name Used Address SSN Issuing State
713 Hart Senate

Barack Obama 282-80-xxxx Ohio
Washington DC
Various addresses
Barack Hussein
Illinois, Massachusetts and 042-68-xxxx 3 Connecticut
Obama
Washington, DC
10131 53rd St E
Barack Obama 364-03-xxxx Michigan
Chicago, IL
Various addresses
Stanley A Dunham 514-03-xxxx 4 Kansas
Honolulu, HI
Stanley Ann Various addresses
535-40-xxxx 5 Washington
Dunham Hawaii and New York
Quite obviously, an American citizen does not need to appropriate social security
numbers for his/her use.
The Selective Service Registration
There seems to be a large discrepancy between Barack Hussein Obama's Selective

Service registration and support documents and other Selective Service registrations
and support documents, also from Hawaii in the same time period. By all appearances,
Barack Hussein Obama's selective service documents have been altered or forged
bringing further into question when those documents were actually submitted, in 1980
or in 2008. See Appendix E.
As an American, Barack Hussein Obama would have been required to register with the
Selective Service in 1980; as a non-resident student going to school in the United States,
he would not have been required to register. Further, if an American in 1980, if he did
not register for the Selective Service in 1980, such would preclude him from ever
holding a public office.
3
This social security number was issued to an individual born in 1890.
4
This number is quite likely that of Stanley Armour Dunham, born March 23, 1918, died February 8, 1992. The
number, however, was used after his death by a Stanley A Dunham.
5
According to the Social Security Index, this number would have been issued to a citizen of Washington State.

The anomalies in his Selective Service registration indicate one of three things:
1) he was not a citizen in 1980;

2) he was a citizen in 1980 but did not register;
3) his Selective Service registration was forged in 2008 to make it appear he was an
American in 1980.
In Summation
At this point in time, there is no evidence to prove conclusively that Obama …
1) was born in Hawaii;

2) was ever an American citizen;
3) was ever natural born;
4) was ever eligible to reclaim American citizenship;
5) is a natural born American citizen eligible to the office of president.

Appendix E. Selective Service Registration
http://www.sonorannews.com/archives/2010/100303/webonlyObama.html
Obama conspiracy – It’s no longer just a theory
A man who fails to register with SS before turning 26 may find that some doors are
permanently closed
By Linda Bentley | March 3, 2010
ARLINGTON, Va. – On Sept. 7, 2008, Barack Hussein Obama appeared on ABC’s “This Week
with George Stephanopoulos,” and stated, “I had to sign up for Selective Service (SS) when
I graduated from high school … And I actually always thought of the military as an
ennobling and, you know, honorable option. But keep in mind that I graduated in 1979. The
Vietnam War had come to an end. We weren’t engaged in active military conflict at that
point. And so, it’s not an option that I ever decided to pursue.”
Some people did keep in mind that he graduated in 1979 and noted the registration
requirement was suspended in April 1975 by President Gerald Ford and wasn’t reinstituted
until 1980 by President Jimmy Carter in response to the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan.
The Military Selective Service Act required men born in the calendar year 1961 to register
on any of the six days beginning Monday, July 28, 1980.
On Oct. 13, 2008, J. Stephen Coffman, a retired federal agent, filed a Freedom of
Information Act (FOIA) request with the SS for a copy of Obama’s SS registration form.
Debbie Schlussel broke this story on Nov. 13, 2008, questioning myriad peculiarities about
Obama’s registration form. (http://www.debbieschlussel.com/4428/exclusive-did-next-
commander-in-chief-falsify-selective-service-registration-never-actually-register-obamas-
draft-registration-raises-serious-questions/)
Coffman's FOIA request was processed on Oct. 29, 2008, two days after the SS claimed it
was received.
Coffman received a copy of Obama’s registration form along with a copy of the computer
inquiry screen, which showed an access date of Sept. 9, 2008, several weeks prior to
Coffman’s request.

It was accompanied by a letter from Richard S. Flahavan, associate director for public affairs
and intergovernmental affairs, who stated, “Also, the enclosed computer inquiry screen
indicates that his registration number is 61-1125539-1, as previously provided to you.”
The computer printout shows a transaction date of Sept. 4, 1980 (the date Obama’s July
29, 1980 registration was entered into the system) with a last action date of Sept. 4, 1980,
signifying nothing else had been received or entered since the original Sept. 4, 1980
registration form.
Coffman found it peculiar his request, according to the computer printout date, was
processed on Sept. 9, 2008, several weeks prior to submitting his request.
On Feb. 9, 2009, Kenneth Allen submitted a FOIA request for the same records. He received
a response, also from Flavahan, dated March 4, 2009.
Flavahan said a copy of Obama’s SS registration was enclosed along with “the resultant
automated file screen,” adding, “Mr. Obama did indeed register with the Selective Service
and was assigned Selective Service Number 61-1125539-1 on Sept. 4, 1980.”
The 10-digit Document Locator Number (DLN) 0897080632 is printed or stamped across the
top right hand corner of the registration form.
The computer printout provided to Coffman displayed an 11-digit DLN of 8089 708 0632.
The computer printouts provided to both Allen and Coffman are both dated Sept. 9, 2008.
The copy of the registration form provided to Allen and Coffman are identical.
However, Allen’s computer printout is titled “Registrant File Inquiry Report” while Coffman’s
is titled “RIMS History Inquiry Screen.”
And, the DLN on the computer printout received by Allen, also an 11-digit number, reads:
0897 080 6320.
So, while Coffman’s printout had an eight added to the beginning, Allen’s had a zero added
to the end.
Once issued, DLNs do not change.
Even though the inquiry screen indicates Allen’s request was processed on Sept. 9, 2008,
just like Coffman’s, it reflects a last action date of June 25, 1991, showing a Form 50
change letter had been received and entered then. Records provided to Coffman reflected
no such action.
The post office round date stamp on Obama’s registration form also raised legitimacy

concerns. The stamp displays “USPO Honolulu, HI Makiki Sta.” with “Jul 29 80” stamped in
the center of the circle on three lines. However, the two-digit year is stamped off center as
if it should have been a four-digit date.
Last week Sonoran News received a response to a FOIA request for 17 SS records for the
purpose of making comparisons.
Every single one of them has a four-digit year stamp, including two registrations processed
at the very same post office, one within days of Obama’s.
In fact, Bruce Henderson, now deceased, whose birthday was also in August 1961,
registered on Aug. 2, 1980 at the Makiki station and his SS number is 61-1125522-7, just
27 numbers apart from Obama’s.
The 10-digit DLN on his registration form reads: 0897080613 and the 11-digit DLN on the
computer printout reads: 0897 080 6130, indicating a zero had been added to the end.
Henderson’s registration was also entered in the same batch as Obama’s on Sept. 4, 1980.
Our FOIA request was initially made in October 2009, but after receiving neither a response
nor an acknowledgement, a subsequent request was made in December 2009 via certified
mail, the receipt of which was promptly acknowledged.
The request was fulfilled by Paula Sweeney from the office of public and intergovernmental
affairs and the computer printouts are dated Jan. 15, 2010 and Jan. 20, 2010.
Every single one of the registrations processed in 1980 had a zero added to the end of the
DLN on the computer printout, a practice that appears to have changed subsequent to that
time.
In fact, a registration dated March 1, 1982 with a 10-digit DLN of 2120360884 stamped on
the registration form, has an 11-digit DLN of 8212 036 0884 entered in the computer, which
appears to be consistent with registrations added after 1980, and possibly not until 1982.
It became obvious records were created after the fact for Obama and were later changed.
However, the computer access date is frozen on Sept. 9, 2008; two days after Obama
appeared on Stephanopoulos’ show saying he registered with SS in 1979 when the
requirement was nonexistent.
The mistakes made by adding to and changing the fraudulently created record after
Coffman’s FOIA request was fulfilled but before the Allen’s was received, provides an audit
trail of the fraud.
It would appear Flahavan, who processed both requests, should have caught the glaring
incongruities. Instead, he got cocky in his letter to Allen by proclaiming, “Mr. Obama did

indeed register with Selective Service …”
The SS website proclaims, “Registration is the law. A man who fails to register may, if
prosecuted and convicted, face a fine of up to $250,000 and/or a prison term of up to five
years.”
It goes on to say, “Even if not tried, a man who fails to register with Selective Service
before turning age 26 may find that some doors are permanently closed,” including federal
student loans or grant programs.
A man must be registered to be eligible for jobs in the executive branch of the federal
government, which includes president of the United States.
Registration is also a condition for U.S. citizenship if the man first arrived in the United
States before his 26th birthday.
If Obama arrived in Hawaii as a citizen of Indonesia, as his school records and mother’s
divorce records indicate, and he didn’t register with SS, he could have been barred from
obtaining U.S. citizenship and may not be one now.
However, those covering up Obama’s tracks have done a sloppy job, which means there
really is a conspiracy to defraud the American people, not just a theory.
